HAve you tried the Fanbox Joomla extension?
you need first to go to http://www.facebook.com/developers and create a new applicaction. It will give you the API keys for the Fanbox.

Code:
<!-- AddThis Button BEGIN -->
<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style ">
<a class="addthis_button_facebook_like"></a>
<a class="addthis_button_tweet"></a>
<a class="addthis_counter addthis_pill_style"></a>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
var addthis_config = {"data_track_clickback":true};
// ]]></script>
<script src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js#pubid=your_username" type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- AddThis Button END -->


Insert this in the article, make sure you enter it in html mode (toggled editor), edit the pubid=your_username. You must have an addthis account for this.

Good luck!

Please i have a similar problem, i have been trying to include a facebook like box on my joomla website(todaysms247.com) but couldn't, i have tried the method you provided here but not working. what should i do.

The HTML5 code i received from facebook are:
1. Include the JavaScript SDK on your page once, ideally right after the opening <body> tag.
This script uses the app ID of your app: Todaysms247Todaysms247
Todaysms247

<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=309073552489972";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>

2. Place the code for your plugin wherever you want the plugin to appear on your page.
<div class="fb-like-box" data-href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Todaysms/370595742992376" data-width="190" data-height="370" data-show-faces="true" data-stream="true" data-header="true"></div>

I used Iframe for facebook like box, Also I used a module called j15html and placed the iframe code in there.

Seems to be working for me.

I also choose iFrame tab to copy the code. Remember to turn off the TinyMCE. The TinyMCE strips out your code, the code can't appear correctly so you can't integrate the Facebook module.

This step-by-step guideline will be helpful for you: http://[spam]/?How-to-Add-th ... id=6770913

Haizz, so sad to see the link is marked as spam :-| That tutorial provide you images for each step so I think you can easy to follow it. You can check it again [URL banned].

By the way, I will answer you here. After you click Get code button, there's a window on the screen to display the code. And you can see 3 tabs with the below order: HTML5 XFBML IFRAME. So click to IFRAME tab and copy the code.

You can make it easier by install an extension to show the fan box in your page. I recommend ITPFacebookLikeBox because it has many useful functions: you can rend your code in an iframe and control your box's appearance (dimension, colour, stream, header, language, etc.) with just a few clicks. I shared my experience about it in my article: Free Joomla 2.5 extensions to connect to social media .
