The target string is always a list of numbers starting with 's' and
matched with a number. Some examples are;

s1s2s3
s2s33s54s32s122
s3s6

The format never changes. These are student numbers. I have to remove
a student from a list (which I have already done) but I also need to
remove that reference from a hidden form value.

So for the 2nd example, I would need to remove s54. I will only
remove one student at a time. So I need to go from:

s2s33s54s32s122

to 

s2s33s32s122 (removed s54)

Hopefully this is enough info, cuz I'm really confused!
