This is an extract from a forum which solved our problem for why the ReCaptcha part disappears from the user registration form. We have Joomla 2.5.16 installed and no new updates for a plugin that comes with Joomla 2.5 install. How? Source: Joomla! • View topic - Cannot get recaptcha to display on registration form...

Note the value in the below field. Now click on it and it disappears, allowing you to type normally. Clear whatever you type so the field is empt...
This is an article to demo the crudest form which uses Joomla's version 2.5 core mootools (uncompressed?). This is intended for absolute novices (like me) who just want to see an example of an AJAX form within Joomla 1.6.x - 2.5.x in it's most basic state. At time of print, I am using this with Joomla 2.5.6.
Working principle
This site exists as a practical knowledge base built from real-world experience across systems, platforms, and technologies since 1999. Much of the content documents solutions, edge cases, and working patterns that were learned through investigation where documentation was incomplete or absent, and is shared to reduce the same friction for others.
