Multi-dimensional arrays generally indicate some kind of glue/hanging table, so you'll have to special case them for your needs...
But here is a generic insert and update functions that may be a groundwork for you....
/**
* Insert a single row into a $database.$table from an array hash of column => value pairs
*
* Usually these are the form field names corresponding to the equivallent SQL database column/field name.
* Use the string 'null' to insert a true NULL.
*
* @access public
* @return mixed inserted ID on success or result on failure
* @param string $database the database to connect to (agis_core) is the default
* @param string $table the name of the table to insert into
* @param hash $rows hash of column => value pairs (optionally columns validated against $validate_columns)
* @param array $valid_columns array of column/field names. Also useful to limit SQL to certain forced columns to prevent
unwanted tampering with 'default' columns for example.

* @see sql_update(), sql_insert_id()
