Here is a very simple function to run stripslashes on an array and all of its child arrays. The function below is for PHP 5 and takes a single argument which should consist of an array.

1. function unstrip_array($array){
2. foreach($array as &$val){
3. if(is_array($val)){
4. $val = unstrip_array($val);
5. }else{
6. $val = stripslashes($val);
7. }
9. }
10. return $array;
11. }
12. Use the following to copy and paste the code.
    function unstrip_array($array){ foreach($array as &$val){ if(is_array($val)){ $val = unstrip_array($val); }else{ $val = stripslashes($val); } } return $array; }

It loops through all elements of the array and if an element is an array it calls itself on th the child array to an infinite depth. Of course this can cause memory problems if your arrays are dynamically created with an excessively large depth, but for most uses, it will function perfectly.
