hey, thanks a lot.
i played a bit with webdriver and chromedriver and all i can say is: 'facebook api what?'. :)))
i setup a fb acc. and made my way to a user's home page but i keep getting stuck at pressing the friends button.
i use the
hopefully i can make the crawler retrieve the css value on its own so i don't have to baby sit it all the time. :D
and by the way, is there any way of doing this faster? like not having to load a chrome page and just make the code do the actions in the background? (but not just run the browser in the background, but not run it at all and make python do the connection itself)
and also, is there any way of using just regular chrome instead of the chromedriver client? it makes it a bit of a pain to keep having to choose notification settings and password settings and all that stuff.

i use the
chrome.find_element_by_css_selectorfunction but apparently the value for the 'friends' button differs from one account to another and even from one browser to another so i have to keep running into errors and place the right code into the script.
