I have an idea on how to do this.  Could someone confirm whether this is a
good approach?

function grayscaletohex ($val)
{
        $n = ($val * 255) / 100;        // convert from range of 100 to
range of 255
        $h = dechex($n);                        // convert decimal to hex
        $results = $h.$h.$h;            // create 6 digit browser color
string
        return $results;
}
