If you can't show us the rest of the code, you'll need to turn to the
Psychic Hotline for the answer. We mere mortals have no way to
determine which code caused the error if we don't know what the code
(and, in particular, "this element") is.

.... but you haven't told us what element you are trying to put it inside. It
is probably either a <p> (which can only hold inline content) or a <font>
(which you shouldn't be using in the first place).
