Captcha does not display in submitcontent form

Edit: renamed to "Captcha does not display" from "Enter Code as shown shows no code" after realizing the correct terminology.

Hey guys,

For some odd reason no code shows up on the submitcontent form so that I cannot
"Enter code as shown".
If I turn off "Use Image Verification", then I can send the form without the code of course.
However I would like to use image verification.
I did set it to yes. Is there anything else I need to do to get a code shown.
Admittedly, I am a bit of a noob.

Thanks in advance.

After learning the correct terminology, I was able to do a better search here and found that others have had the same problem to the Captcha image not showing , such as in this thread:

A workaround solution is using Recaptcha ( and not Captcha ) as detailed in this thread
Recaptcha

However I would still would love to find a resolution as to why the Captcha image does not display.
Is it perhaps that I did not install Joomla on the root folder and Chronoforms may be addressing that image with an absolute url of sorts?

Hi orionstarman ,

There is a FAQ with some suggestions for testing. Usually it's a question for your ISP to check the site config - especially if mod_security is installed.

Thank you Bob. Where may I find that FAQ if I may ask? I seemed to have overlooked it or looking in the wrong places.
