…vior: smooth When `scroll-behavior: smooth` is set on the html element, calling `scrollTo(0, 0)` starts a smooth animation. SvelteKit reads back the scroll position immediately after via `scroll_state()`, getting a non-zero value and storing it as the page's scroll position. This causes subsequent navigations to restore the wrong scroll position. Fix by passing `behavior: 'instant'` to all navigation scroll calls so they complete synchronously, regardless of CSS scroll-behavior. The anchor link `scrollIntoView()` case is intentionally unchanged since that already respects the CSS scroll-behavior property. Fixes sveltejs#2733

When
scroll-behavior: smoothis set on the html element,scrollTo(0, 0)starts an animation instead of jumping immediately. SvelteKit reads the scroll position right after the call and stores the mid-animation value, causing subsequent navigations to land at the wrong offset.Fix: pass
behavior: 'instant'to all navigation scroll calls. ThescrollIntoView()case for anchor links is intentionally left alone.Fixes #2733
