SUP specifies that the enclosed text should be rendered in superscript, with the enclosed text slightly higher than the surrounding text. This can be useful for mathematical formulas.

Notes:

Since this tag is new, support for it is not universal. Make sure that the text would still look readable if the SUP tag weren't used.
