For instance, if the html tag "table" appears in the code, my program (php) will interpret and "sing" the tag as "a", "b" and "e", as they are notes in musical notation. The same goes, for example, with the tag "head": we hear the "h", "e," "a," and "d." "h" exists in German music notation, so there is an extra "note" to sing...
