this outputs the same as

This dir doesn't exists. The '/' at the beginning of path means: path is from root (unix) or from e.g. c:\ (windows)

Outputs from

var_dump(realpath("../../lists/admin/temp"))
var_dump(realpath('temp'));

are same and thus you working directory is 'C:\...\htdocs\lists\admin'. If you need check existence of dir 'temp' in your current working directory you can try one of:

is_dir('temp');
is_dir('./temp');
is_dir('C:\...\htdocs\lists\admin\temp');

IMHO every is_dir() return true.
