Hello,
I want to write the column name in my uitable as <reff,f> where eff,f are subscripts. I tried using html but for some reason adding the < ruins everything. Help?
PS I am using matlab R2016a

This worked!! using the html code for the < symbol:
'<html>&lt r<sub>eff,f</sub> >'
its odd thougth that we can just use > and not its code and it works. Anyone know why this happens?

Sorry I had not realized the < > were intended to be literal.
> is accepted due to lax HTML parsing. A real HTML parser would have given an error .
