open(filehandle, file)

so I have open(OUT, ">>Router1")

but now I want to have the file name to be able change from a form. The name is dropdownbox.

I have tried:

open(OUT, >>param("dropdownbox"))
open(OUT, ">>", param("dropdownbox"))
open(OUT, ">>param("dropdownbox")")

i tried assiging a variable to this string:

my $filename = ">>" . param("dropdownbox")
open(OUT, $filename)

my $filename = param("dropdownbox")
open(OUT, ">>$filename")

NONE of these work please help me out.
