Solution 2

The reason may be that the <tr> tag does not host the content directly. A <tr> element contains one or more <th> or <td> elements as explained here http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_tr.asp[^]
Try enclosing the following content

XML

<label for="financial year" class="required"><font size="4"><B>Financial Year</B></font></label>
<select id="financial year" name="financial year" size="1" >
<option value="1">2011-2012</option>
<option value="2">2012-2013</option>
<option value="3">2013-2014</option>
<option value="4">2014-2015</option>
<option value="5">2015-2016</option>
</select>

within <td> </td> block.
