Ok, so below you will find all my code for the function, what it does is basically goes through the CWD and searches for all HTML files in it and the sub directories. I need help with is skipping one directory that i specify. 

our $newdir = "Pulled on $date";
mkdir $newdir;

# i want the dftree to skip the $newdir only and continue on
# after. Thanks!

sub dftree(){
        my $dir = shift;        
        opendir (DIR, $dir) or die "Could not open directory $dir: $!"
+;

        my @entries = map {"$dir/$_"} grep {!/^\.{1,2}$/} readdir(DIR)
+;
        closedir DIR;

        for (@entries) {
              (-d) ? &dftree($_) :(/\.html$/)? &file_check($_): next;
        }
        
}
