You need to set the row fields name as an array.
You should know the javascript or jquery for appent each rows without page load.

save.php
<?php
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","user","user");
if (!$con)
{

mysql_select_db("sales_db", $con);
$sql="INSERT INTO Items (itemNo, Unit, Description, Quantity, Price, Total, ORNumber)

A. Your html is shot to hell. Multiple </html> tags with inexplicable <table> closures.
B. Your SQL is using raw POST vars - unsanitized and highly dangerous - don't do it! Neither is there any validation - you could be shoving any old rubbish into the DB.
C. What are you trying to achieve with this particular JS:
if (/^\.?$/.test(this.value) || !/^-?\d*\.?\d*$/.test(this.value)) {alert('aduy!'); this.value=''; this.focus()}
//As you're repeating this all over the place, it should go into a js function.
D. Inline styles and html styling attributes should be a thing of the past. You seem to have 'included the kitchen sink'. Maybe de-cluttering your html will enable you to focus on producing valid HTML in the first instance.
