Try this:

<form method="post" action="check.php">
 <select name="website_string">
 <option value="" selected="selected"></option>
 <option VALUE="abc"> ABC</option>
 <option VALUE="def"> def</option>
 <option VALUE="hij"> hij</option>
 </select>
 <input TYPE="submit" name="submit" />
</form>

Both your select control and your submit button had the same name attribute, so the last one used was the submit button when you clicked it. All other syntax errors aside.
