I am sorry to report what seems to be an incredible problem with the saveTable() method.

void setup(){
  Table t =  createTable();
  t.addColumn("x");
  t.addColumn("y");
  TableRow newRow = t.addRow();
  newRow.setString("x", "a");
  newRow.setString("y", "b");
  saveTable(t,"data/data.csv", "csv"); 
}
void draw(){}

Gives a file that looks like this:

$ cat data.csv
x,y
a,b
x,y
a,b
$

There is a workaround, though! Do not specify the file type, let processing guess by the extension!... saveTable(t,"data/data.csv");

produces:

$ cat data.csv
x,y
a,b
$

This is an issue for processing/processing, not processing/processing-web because it's not a documentation issue. Please post it there. I'm going to close it here.
