//OR

$post = $this->input->post();
for ($i = 0; $i < count($post['name']; $i++) 
{
   $this->db->insert('my_table', array('name' => $post['name'][$i], 'email' => $post['email'][$i], 'course' => $post['course'][$i]));
}
?>

Examp2 Using Controller & View form templates

Views

<div class="box-body table-responsive" >
    <table id="example1" class="table table-bordered table-striped">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th class="col-md-2 col-xs-5">Name</th>

</table>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>

class Dashboard extends CI_Controller 
	{

	$this->load->model('AdminModel');
	//$this->load->helper('url');
	}
public function center_details()
		{

		$this->form_validation->set_rules('Name[]', 'Name', 'required');
		$this->form_validation->set_rules('Depmt[]', 'department', 'required');
		$this->form_validation->set_rules('course[]', 'Course', 'required');

			if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
			{      
		 $this->load->view('admin/center_emp_details');
	        
			}
			else
			{
				$post = $this->input->post();
				for ($i = 0; $i < count($post['Name']); $i++) 
				{
				$data=array('name' => $post['Name'][$i],
							'department' => $post['Depmt'][$i],
							'course' => $post['course'][$i],);
					
				$this->db->insert('salary',$data);

				}	
			}
		}
}
?>
