If you want to rely on jQuery this can help you:

$('#save').on('click', function(){

    $('input[type="text"]').each(function(){    
        var id = $(this).attr('id');
        var value = $(this).val();
       localStorage.setItem(id, value);

    });   
});

$('#load').on('click', function(){
    $('input[type="text"]').each(function(){    
        var id = $(this).attr('id');
        var value = localStorage.getItem(id);

        $(this).val(value);

    }); 
});

I would recommend to avoid inline-js, so I updated to code to use .on() for attaching the click-handler to the two buttons.
