This is an old question, but if like me you don't want to do this in CSS you can use drawCallback in 1.10 or higher to alter the table cell padding and/or height using JS.

var import_list = $( 'table.import_list' ).DataTable( {
    'drawCallback': function () {
        $( 'table.import_list tbody tr td' ).css( 'padding', '5px 8px 5px 8px' );

In any case to set a row height, simply use css

 tr { height: 50px } 

i think there is no need for it to be more complex.

Regarding the question on how to insert the data into a db, there are tons of examples on google.
