    According to the HTML5, the closing tag for the element is optional if it’s followed by another option tag, or if it’s the last element of the element.

    An option element’s end tag may be omitted if the option element is
    immediately followed by another option element, or if it is
    immediately followed by an optgroup element, or if there is no more
    content in the parent element.

    So you can write it like this to be more readable

    <p>
    <label for="subject">subject :</label>
    <select id="subject" name="subject">
        <option value="">
        <option value="">
        <option value="">
        <option value="">
        <option value="">
        <option value="">
        <option value="">
        <option value="">
        <option value="">
        <option value="">
    </select>
</p>

    As far as I know this is also true for HTML 4.
