script:

$(document).ready(function(){
var dataSet;
try{
    dataSet = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('dataSet')) || [];
} catch (err) {
    dataSet = [];
}
$('#iTable').dataTable({
    "data": [],
        "columns": [{
        "title": "Name"
    }, {
        "title": "Age"
    }, {
        "title": "Gender"
    }, {
        "title": "Action"
    }],
        "bStateSave": true,
        "stateSave": true,
        "bPaginate": false,
        "bLengthChange": false,
        "bFilter": false,
        "bInfo": false,
        "bAutoWidth": false
});
oTable = $('#iTable').DataTable();
for (var i = 0; i < dataSet.length; i++) {
    oTable.row.add(dataSet[i]).draw();
}

$('#tAdd').click(function () {
        var data = [
            $('#tname').val(),
            $('#tage').val(),
            $("[name='tgender']:checked").val(),
            "Delete"
        ];
        oTable.row.add(data).draw();
        dataSet.push(data);
        localStorage.setItem('dataSet', JSON.stringify(dataSet));      
});

$(document).on('click', '.idelete', function () {
    var row = $(this).closest('tr');
    oTable.row(row).remove().draw();
    var rowElements = row.find("td");
    for (var i = 0; i < dataSet.length; i++) {
        var equals = true;
        for (var j = 0; j < 3; j++) {
            if (dataSet[i][j] != rowElements[j].innerHTML) {
                equals = false;
                break;
            }
        }
        if (equals) {
            dataSet.splice(i, 1);
            break;
        }
    }
    localStorage.setItem('dataSet', JSON.stringify(dataSet));
});


$('#tSave').click(function(){
$.ajax({        
       type: "POST",
       url: "saveTable.php",
       data: { tableArray : dataSet },
       success: function(result) {

       }
    }); 
});
});

saveTable.php

<?php error_reporting(-1); ini_set('display_errors', 'On'); $host = "localhost"; $user = "root"; $pass = ""; $db = "test"; $dbc = new PDO("mysql:host=" . $host . ";dbname=" . $db, $user, $pass); $dbc->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION); $myArray = $_REQUEST['tableArray']; $pieces = explode(",", $myArray); $sql = "INSERT INTO viewTables (name, age, gender, action) VALUES (:name, :age, :gender, :action)"; $query = $dbc->prepare($sql); foreach ($pieces as $last) { $query -> execute(array(':name'=>$name, ':age'=>$email, ':gender'=>$gender, ':action'=>$last)); } ?>
