AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group' error

try:
            res = self.browser.open('https://login.facebook.com/login.php?login_attempt=1',form_data)
            response = res.read()
            self.fbid = re.search('https://www.facebook.com/(.*)\?sk=info',response)
            self.fbid = re.search('https://www.facebook.com/(.*)',self.fbid.group(1))
            self.fbid = re.search('https://www.facebook.com/(.*)',self.fbid.group(1))
        except urllib2.HTTPError,e :
            print "****exception****inside login  error code: %s" % (e.code)
        res.close()
    except urllib2.HTTPError,e :
         print "****exception****inside login  error code: %s" % (e.code)

    #print " server Response Code: %s " % (res.code)

i got this

File "facebotv2.py", line 122, in login
    self.fbid = re.search('https://www.facebook.com/(.*)',self.fbid.group(1))

self.fbid is None after your first regular expression search. This probably means that you didn't find a match. If you want to prevent the error, you can conditionally only continue searching the result of the initial search with if self.fbid != None
