I seem to remember reading somewhere that a druid has to make a Will? save to keep his form if dispel magic is cast on them in wild shape? Or maybe it was in an anti-magic field?
I'm not sure where I read this and I can't seem to find it now. Is this from an earlier version of the rules or am I just confused? Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance!

Read page 554 of the PFRPG core book, supernatural abilities.
Cliff Notes version: Wildshape cannot be dispelled.

I believe, though, that a wildshaped Druid subject to Antimagic will automatically revert to her standard form, under RAW, since the Supernatural effect of Wild Shape is listed with a duration, and Supernatural effects are subject to Antimagic (same table).
There was an optional rule published in either 3.0 or 3.5 that allowed a Druid to make a will save to remain Wild Shaped when subjected to Antimagic (it was mechanically based, I believe, on the (*very* optional) precedent of the Soulknife psionic class, which could manifest a "Mindblade" as a Supernatural ability and was specifically called out as getting a Will save to keep a manifested Mindblade even under the effects of Antimagic - a somewhat tenuous premise at best - but on the other hand, the argument makes sense from an in-game character-based perspective that says that the Druids' tie to nature should at least have a chance of persisting in the presence of Antimagic). It's not perpetuated anywhere in the Pathfinder rules that I can find, though.
