It's a very common requirment that you may want to
insert ad codes or some other texts in a joomla article
or elsewhere.I am going to show how it can be done so
that if you want some text like "{replace it}" will be
replaced by your code -

in your custom plugin use following event -

defined('_JEXEC') or die;
jimport( 'joomla.plugin.plugin' );
class plgContentHelloworld extends JPlugin
{
function onAfterRender() // for replacing any body tag
{
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
if( $app->isAdmin()) {
return false;
}

$type = JFactory::getDocument()->getType();
if( $type != 'html' ) {
return false;
}
$response = JResponse::getBody();
$replace = "{replace it}";
$response = str_replace($replace, '<div style="margin:2px;">scripts/codes
here</div>', $response);
JResponse::setBody($response);
return true;
}
}

{replace it} text will be replaced by the scripts/codes you
enter in the above str_replace method.

Hope that helped you very much,don't forget to share and like
