The <sup> tag is definitely not presentational. It's good for the browser to know what is superscripted. Think about math and powers.
The browser will interpret these two things totally differently: 104 10<sup>4</sup> (correct) 10<span>4</span> (browser will think it's 104 instead of 104) Dan From: li...@webstandardsgroup.org [mailto:li...@webstandardsgroup.org] On Behalf Of Kevin Rapley Sent: Monday, July 02, 2012 7:28 AM To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Cc: Teddy Knoy Subject: Re: [WSG] which tag to use for link to reference? I would go with David Dorwood's suggestion, this seems the most logical. I would try and avoid the <sup> tags, as these are for superscript, which is really presentational and should be handled by CSS if this is the style that is required. On 2 July 2012 11:41, Patrick H.
