insert php array into mysql

I have an array $product_array, and when I use print_r($product_array);. The array shows like this

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [ID] => P00100
            [NAME] => Edina
            [PRICE] => $20.00
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [ID] => P00101
            [NAME] => Richfield
            [PRICE] => $21.00
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [ID] => P00102
            [NAME] => Bloomington
            [PRICE] => $22.00
        )
)

I set my database table in 4 columes, first one is mainid, and which is auto increment, following with ID, NAME, PRICE, as the keys showed above. I would like to insert this array $product_array into mysql. Can anyone help? Would be very much appreciated! tks.

   $sql = array(); 
    foreach( $myarray as $row ) {
        $sql[] = '('.$row['ID'].', "'.mysql_real_escape_string($row['NAME']).'",
 "'.$row['PRICE'].'")';
    }
    mysql_query('INSERT INTO table (ID, NAME,PRICE) VALUES '.implode(',', $sql));

You can try this code (quick 'n' dirty):

foreach($product_array as $v) {
  $query = 'insert into tablename values (null, \'' . $v['id'] . '\', \'' . $v['name'] . '\', ' . $v['price'] . ');'
  mysql_query($query);
}
