I have recently found that Matlab can use LaTeX character sequences. However, they only can be used by the functions text, title, xlabel, ylabel and zlabel. I have designed a GUI which has an uitable. Its header is a string that uses HTML code and looks like this:

headers = {'<html><center>Component X<br />(km/s^2)</center></html>', ...
           '<html><center>Component Y<br />(km/s^2)</center></html>', ...
           '<html><center>Component Z<br />(km/s^2)</center></html>'};

My intention is replacing s^2 with s squared. Because of I can not use LaTeX characters inside the string “header” (at least I have tried it and it has not worked), I would like to know how I could do it if I use HTML code which I do not know.

    For writing superscripts in HTML, use the <sup>...</sup> pair:

    headers = {'<html><center>Component X<br />(km/s<sup>2</sup>)</center></html>', ...
           '<html><center>Component Y<br />(km/s<sup>2</sup>)</center></html>', ...
           '<html><center>Component Z<br />(km/s<sup>2</sup>)</center></html>'};
