You've created a 2x2 array, not a 1x4, which might be confusing you:
tab2 ["fields1"] ["fields5"]
tab1 ["fields2"] ["fields7"]

You almost have it, you just need to set your loop up to handle unlimited field/value pairs in your array.

One option is to structure your loop like this:
foreach  ($insert as $table => $fields) {
        foreach($fields as $field => $value) {
                $fieldValuePairs[] = "$field = $value";
        }
        $fieldValueStr = implode(',', $fieldValuePairs);
        echo "update $table set $fieldValueStr";
        unset($fieldValuePairs);
}

If I create the following 2 dimensional associative array:-

$insert["tab2"]["fields1"] = "value1";
$insert["tab1"]["fields2"] = "value2";
$insert["tab2"]["fields5"] = "value3";
$insert["tab1"]["fields7"] = "value4";

how do I do 2 levels of nested loop with the first level looping through the first level of the array and the second nesting through the second. something like:-

foreach( $insert as $table => $fields ) {
  foreatch( $fields as $field => $value ) {
    echo "update $table set $field = $value";
  }
}

Ben
