Does it work with new Facebook layout ?

I'm afraid it doesn't. I'm a newbie though. Took me a while to make it work (I had to change settings.py to call geckodriver and firefox binary with absolute paths) then it got to the login page, correctly inserted my username and password, but couldn't find the login button ('selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException'). But then again I'm not a pro

@vanyazhuk try updating login button to 'browser.find_element_by_name('login').click()'. either way, the scraper won't work since they changed the html links too.

Just tried it today and doesn't work, well can't do much when FB's UI is constantly changing..
