You can do superscripts using the \<sup\> and \</sup\> tags.

I don’t know specifically about the sharp and flat symbols, but I would imagine that they’re in Unicode somewhere, so if you do get them (possibly by copying and pasting from somewhere else), they should show up on any remotely modern web browser.
