I’m trying to automate posting listings on facebook marketplace with url:

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/create/item

but I can’t click on or send keys to elements even when successfully found.

The page looks like this:

For example, lets say I want to click on the title input box, which was highlighted in the previous image.

My code:

title = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//*[text()='Title']")))
print(title.text)
title.click()
title.send_keys('text')

The element is successfully located and print(title.text) correctly prints “Title” but whenever I try to click the element I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I get a similar error when trying to send keys to the element. The title element html is:

<input dir="ltr" id=":r1b:" class="x1i10hfl xggy1nq x1s07b3s x1kdt53j x1a2a7pz xjbqb8w x1ejq31n xd10rxx x1sy0etr x17r0tee x9f619 xzsf02u x1uxerd5 x1fcty0u x132q4wb x1a8lsjc x1pi30zi x1swvt13 x9desvi xh8yej3 x15h3p50 x10emqs4" type="text" value="" xpath="1">

I believe the element is dynamic as the id sometimes changes but the xpath selector:

//*[text()='Title']

that I’m using works every time and I tend to locate elements by text as the other elements on the page seems to be dynamic as well.
