python - Selenium Can't find "HOME" element on Facebook

Question

I'm doing some exercises with selenium, trying to scrape a few pages on facebook. However, I'm not able to find the "Home" button link element to keep going. This on the left menu in any user's profile.

From what I'm seeing in the page code, the link is here:

<div class="_2yaa" data-key="tab_home">
  <a class="_2yau" data-endpoint="/seudogshow/?ref=page_internal" href="/seudogshow/?ref=page_internal">
    <span class="_2yav">Home</span>
    <span class="img _55ym _55yn _55yo _2wwb" aria-busy="true" role="progressbar" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100" aria-valuetext="Loading..."></span>
  </a>
</div>

How would you guys go about clicking this button?

I tried with something like this:

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[contains(text(), 'Home')]").click()

or

wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//a[contains(text(), 'Home')]"))).click()

But I'm clearly doing it wrong.

您尝试单击的元素有一个span标签，而不是a. 尝试以下操作：

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//span[contains(text(), 'Home')]").click()
