A superscripted superscript in HTML?

Is it possible to superscript a superscript?

Code:

<p>A<sup>a</sup><sup>a</sup></p>

Didn't work for me.

I don't think so, you will probably have to use images for something like this. Is the page to do with physics or math? Most stuff like that just use images as html doesn't really support most of the letters and symbols needed for physics or math.

I have seen it done before (without graphics). I remember being pretty impressed but I don't think I looked at the source.

This appears to work just fine in Mozilla.

I didn't think html allowed you to do that? Whenever I have seen it before it has always been done using images

tomj88, yes, I asked this from a chemistry point of view. I wanted to express units for a power of e.

Sepero, thanks a lot! That is pretty cool, and I've learned some more HTML.
