As I reported in another post. Some features of the Joomla-Joomlart templates do not function properly when upgrading to Joomla 1.5.12 or Joomla 1.5.13.
One of those features would be the inline spacing being deleted, that is, these are deleted:
so that it is no longer possible to create variable spacing or indentation. See significance below.
Related observations:
- Relevant to the problem perhaps, I found out that the icons (used for layout and editing) in the WYSIWYG default editor was no longer complete in the updated site (updated to either Joomla 1.5.12 or Joomla 1.5.13) with respect to Joomla 1.5.11.
- A new feature appears in the default editor: Path. What do we do with that?
- More troubling, I just found out that for some reason, Teline II sites that started from earlier versions (August 2008) — while successfully upgraded up to Joomla 1.5.11, and functional — once upgraded to either Joomla 1.5.12 or Joomla 1.5.13, will no longer allow edit and saving of old or new files.
Example:

This is an old site used more as a Sandbox, for problems like this. I was planning to document in this Sandbox site, the problems I encountered in my working sites, as I upgraded the latter from Joomla 1.5.11 to Joomla 1.5.12 or Joomla 1.5.13. However, while I was able to upgrade the Sandbox site
- More recent versions of Joomla 1.5.x-Teline II, installed in 2009, when either upgraded to Joomla 1.5.12 or Joomla 1.5.13, from Joomla 1.5.11 allowed edit and saving of old or new files. However, these upgraded sites have the same problems reported in here — “delete of inline spacing” and “messed up default editor”, as described above.]

Significance:
The problem described here will not be noticed in sites that do not use “inline spacing”. However, this issue is critical in literature sites, like those where you have poems.
Up to Joomla 1.5.11 – Teline II, the poem — shown with raw html tags below — will be formatted properly with unique indentations, for each line.
Examples of poems with unique inline spacing or indentation are shown here
http://joomla-university.org/jte15x098/layout-issues/joomla-1511.html
when the indentation or inline spacing feature is working that seem to be working up to Joomla 1.5.11
However, the unique inline spacing or indentation feature disappeared when the site is upgraded to either Joomla 1.5.12 or Joomla 1.5.13
<h3> O CAPTAIN! MY CAPTAIN! - J1.5.12</h3>
<br />
<br />O CAPTAIN! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
<br />The ship has weather'd every rack, the prize we sought is won,
<br />The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
<br />While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
<br /> But O heart! heart! heart!
<br /> O the bleeding drops of red,
<br /> Where on the deck my Captain lies,
<br /> Fallen cold and dead.
<br />
<br />O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
<br />Rise up- for you the flag is flung- for you the bugle trills,
<br />For you bouquets and ribbon'd wreaths- for you the shores
<br /> a-crowding,
<br />For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
<br /> Here Captain! dear father!
<br /> This arm beneath your head!
<br /> It is some dream that on the deck,
<br /> You've fallen cold and dead.
<br />
<br />My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,
<br />My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will,
<br />The ship is anchor'd safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,
<br />From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;
<br /> Exult O shores, and ring O bells!
<br /> But I with mournful tread,
<br /> Walk the deck my Captain lies,
<br /> Fallen cold and dead.
