Parent and Current Directories

[SAWMaster]

Hello group!

I'm trying to list all files in a directory EXCEPT the current and the parent 
directories.

ie.

.
..
file1
file2
file3

Is not what I want.  I only want:

file1
file2
file3

I thought I had the right code, but I don't.

while($i < ($#filelist))
{
    if ((@filelist[$i] ne '.') || (@filelist[$i] ne '..'))
    {
        print @filelist[$i];
        print "<BR>\n";
        $i++;
    }
}

I was thinking, maybe it's not equal to . and .. because of a newline at the end of . 
and .. ?

But I tried a chop, or chomp and it just took off the last letter of all files, 
problem unsolved.

Can someone steer a newbie in the right direction again?
