Ditto, I clicked and was disappointed.

"How to send a magic packet in $LANG" isn't very interesting to me. There are plenty of guides for it, and I remember actually doing it 20+ years ago with a short PHP script.

Even at the time, the task didn't seem like "enough" for a show-the-world blog post. A dramatically shortened version (no validation, error handling, logging, etc.) for your amusement:

    // Given $macAddress and $addr and $port
    $macAddress = str_replace(":","",$macAddress);
    $macAddress = str_replace("-","",$macAddress);

    $header = pack('H12','FFFFFFFFFFFF');
    $payload = pack("H12",$macAddress);
    $packet = $header . str_repeat($payload,16);

    $sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, SOL_UDP);
    socket_set_option($sock, 1, 6, TRUE);
    socket_sendto($sock, $payload, strlen($payload), 0, $addr, $port);
    socket_close($sock);
