The saved offset was recorded against the page at its SETTLED height, while the DOM the restore swaps in is still shorter until its components upgrade and render. Without the suppression the browser treats that late growth as content appearing above a reader and adds it to the offset the router just replayed, so the reader lands BELOW where they left (the reported case was 763px, exactly the height a page gained after its swap). What follows for an app: -- **Do not write your own scroll restore.** A `popstate` listener that calls `scrollTo`, a saved offset in `sessionStorage`, a `scrollIntoView` on a remembered element: all of them fight the router, which already set `history.scrollRestoration = 'manual'` and is the sole authority on scroll during a navigation. If Back lands in the wrong place, that is a framework bug to report, not something to patch in app code. +- **Do not write your own scroll restore.** A `popstate` listener that calls `scrollTo`, a saved offset in `sessionStorage`, a `scrollIntoView` on a remembered element: all of them fight the restore, which is the BROWSER's (see the next bullet) and which the router protects with a suppression window while the page settles. If Back lands in the wrong place, that is a framework bug to report, not something to patch in app code. +- **The BROWSER restores Back/Forward scroll, not the router, and an app must not set `history.scrollRestoration = 'manual'`** (#1428). The router FORCES `history.scrollRestoration` to `auto` on start (and puts the app's own value back on `disableClientRouter()`), so setting `'manual'` yourself does not take effect while the router runs. Under `auto` the browser records a scroll position per history entry, replays it on a traverse, and composes the iOS edge back-swipe GESTURE PREVIEW from that same recorded state. The router writes no scroll on a restore at all: it reserves the recorded height (below) so the browser's replay lands on a document that can hold the offset, and that is the whole mechanism. One writer, the same model Next and Remix 3 use. Taking `manual` suppresses the recording, so every scrolled page previews BLANK for the whole gesture. That is what the router itself used to do, inherited from Turbo Drive's `assumeControlOfScrollRestoration`, and it is why Turbo still previews blank the same way: Turbo is single-writer too, but the writer is the APP. An app that sets `manual` re-breaks the preview app-wide. - **An app that sets `overflow-anchor` on `` itself sees it overridden during a restore and restored afterwards**, including a value set inline by your own script. Setting it in a stylesheet is unaffected between restores. Nothing else on the page is touched, and the router never sets `overflow-anchor` anywhere but the root element. - **A new PAGE navigation ends an open window.** The window outlives its own restore on purpose (a floor, then a ceiling), so a page navigation or a page-level form submission starting inside that span closes it first, and reopens only if it earns one. Otherwise a second Back, or a click, would inherit suppressed anchoring on a page it was never meant for. A FRAME-TARGETED navigation or submission is the exception, on exactly the rule that decides frame targeting everywhere else (the enclosing frame, an explicit `data-webjs-frame=""` from anywhere, or the frame's own `src`; `_top` and an unresolvable id are page navigations and do close the window). It swaps one region and leaves the page, and so the restored offset, intact, so it leaves the restore running. Closing there would hand anchoring back mid-restore and bring the double count straight back, and it needs no user input to happen, since a component upgrading in the just-restored page can drive a frame on its own. -- **Suppression is conditional on the offset being reachable, and follows the chase onto it.** A page that has not grown yet can be too short to scroll that far, so the browser clamps to its current maximum. There the shortfall IS the growth still to come, and anchoring adding it is what carries the reader back down, so the router leaves anchoring alone. Suppressing in that case would freeze the clamp and strand the reader a full page-growth above where they left, which is this same defect pointing the other way. That case is not left to anchoring alone, though, because anchoring adds the FULL growth however far short the clamp fell, so by itself it only lands a reader who left at the very bottom. The router also CHASES the recorded offset there, re-asserting it the moment the page is tall enough to hold it, and then stopping. That is the one place the router writes scroll after the initial restore, it is scoped to the clamped path, and it stops on the same inputs that close a suppression window. It is also time-boxed, and more tightly than the window a landed restore gets: a few hundred milliseconds from the RESTORE, not the 2s ceiling, and the suppression it installs on landing shares that same deadline rather than starting a fresh one. That bound is what keeps it from moving a reader who has landed and started reading, since such a reader generates no input to cancel it and the chase cannot tell the restore settling apart from any other growth. Anchoring is left on only WHILE the offset is out of reach, which is the part that heals the clamp. The moment the chase lands on the offset it suppresses anchoring too, because the growth that made the offset reachable is rarely all of it and every later stage would otherwise be added on top of what was just written. Both halves end together on the bound. After it, the router writes no more scroll and anchoring is back on, so a component that reaches its final height later than the bound (a chart, an embed measured from its content) has its growth added and the reader drifts BELOW the offset, the same way they would without this fix at all, rather than sitting at the clamp. +- **The recorded HEIGHT is reserved across the restore, so the offset is always reachable.** A snapshot records the page's settled `scrollHeight` alongside the offset, and the restore holds that height on the root element until the page has filled in. Without it the swapped-in markup is briefly shorter than the page it came from, the browser clamps the restore to whatever the short document allowed, and the reader lands short. The reservation removes that window rather than correcting for it afterwards, which is what retired the older catch-up that used to chase the offset as the page grew. It is released on the same settle that closes the anchoring window, on the same ceiling, and when another navigation supersedes the restore, but never on user input: releasing the height under a reader mid-scroll is the one harm an early release could do. An app's own inline `min-height` on the root is saved and put back, the same contract the anchoring window keeps. - **The window closes on the first real input** (`wheel`, `touchmove`, `keydown`, `pointerdown`), so a reader who starts scrolling mid-restore immediately gets normal browser anchoring back. Absent that it closes once the restore is over, which is the LATER of the restore's own background revalidation settling and a short floor, and at the latest on a 2s ceiling. The floor is load-bearing: waiting on the revalidation alone ties the window's length to network latency rather than to the growth it guards, so a server answering faster than the page renders would close it early and the reader would land low again. Suppression only ever WITHHOLDS a browser correction, it never moves the viewport, so it cannot yank someone who has taken over. Components that reach their final size only after they render (a chart, a media embed with no intrinsic dimensions, anything sized from measured content) are exactly the shape that triggers this, and they need no special handling: give them a placeholder height where you can, and let the router own the restore. diff --git a/.agents/skills/webjs/references/muscle-memory-gotchas.md b/.agents/skills/webjs/references/muscle-memory-gotchas.md index 9a9ace09e..917cb48d5 100644 --- a/.agents/skills/webjs/references/muscle-memory-gotchas.md +++ b/.agents/skills/webjs/references/muscle-memory-gotchas.md @@ -210,7 +210,9 @@ Navigation is automatic.

Derived from folder structure, with authors writing nothing.
  2. On a click or form submit, the router STRICTLY scans both the live DOM and the incoming HTML into segment maps (a close must match its innermost open; any truncated, mispaired, or duplicated boundary poisons the scan) and DECIDES which of two tiers to apply, with Next.js parity. Nothing is applied yet: a boundary whose route-key CHANGED will be wholesale REPLACED at the PARENT of the shallowest change (a layout's boundary wraps only its children, so anchoring at the parent remounts the changed layout's own markup too, exactly like Next re-rendering a layout with new params), while an all-keys-equal nav (a searchParams-only change) will MORPH the deepest shared boundary in place so hydrated component state survives. A poisoned scan or no shared boundary degrades to a normal full page load, never a guessed swap, so a malformed response cannot corrupt the live DOM. Because the boundaries are comments, the parse that turns a response into a document has to preserve them: Document.parseHTMLUnsafe strips every comment in some browser versions, so the router probes it once and parses with DOMParser instead when it is lossy.

This is Turbo Drive's ordering too. (It was introduced as a fix for the blank iOS back-swipe preview, on the theory that WebKit binds the gesture snapshot when the entry is recorded. That theory turned out to be wrong, and the preview was actually fixed by leaving history.scrollRestoration alone; the ordering is kept because recording an entry against its own page is correct regardless.)

That re-execution reaches a script wherever it sits, inside the swapped content or as a top-level node of the swapped range itself (a layout emitting its enhancement script as a sibling of \${children}).

    The router maintains a URL-keyed LRU cache of page snapshots (capacity 16). On back/forward via popstate, the cached DOM is applied instantly and the captured window-scroll position is restored. A background refetch then revalidates the snapshot quietly.

    -

    A back/forward restore also suppresses the browser's scroll anchoring (overflow-anchor) for its duration, then puts it back. The saved offset was recorded against the page at its settled height, while the DOM the restore swaps in is still shorter until its components upgrade and render. Without the suppression the browser reads that late growth as content appearing above the reader and adds it to the offset the router just replayed, landing them below where they left. The window closes on the first real input (wheel, touchmove, keydown, pointerdown), so a reader who starts scrolling mid-restore gets normal anchoring back immediately. It also closes as soon as another page navigation starts, since the window outlives its own restore and must not be inherited by a page it was never meant for; that navigation then opens a window of its own if it earns one. Absent either of those it closes once the restore is over, which is the later of that restore's background revalidation settling and a short floor, and at the latest on a 2s ceiling. The floor matters because waiting on the revalidation alone would tie the window to network latency rather than to the growth it guards, so a server answering faster than the page renders would close it too early. Suppression only withholds a browser correction, it never moves the viewport. If your app sets overflow-anchor on <html> inline itself, it is overridden during a restore and restored afterwards. The suppression is conditional: when the page has not grown enough to scroll to the recorded offset at all, the browser clamps the scroll, and there the shortfall is exactly the growth still to come, so anchoring adding it is what carries the reader back down. The router leaves anchoring alone while the offset is out of reach, rather than freezing the clamp, and chases the saved offset, re-asserting it once the page is tall enough to hold it and protecting it from there. That is the only scroll the router writes after the initial restore. It stops on the first real input, so it never fights a reader who has started scrolling, and it is time-boxed to a few hundred milliseconds measured from the restore, which is tighter than the window a landed restore gets; the suppression it installs on landing shares that deadline rather than starting a fresh one. The bound is what protects a reader who has landed and started reading, since they generate no input to cancel it. Anchoring is left on only while the offset is out of reach, since that is what heals the clamp; once the chase lands on the offset it suppresses anchoring too, because the growth that made the offset reachable is rarely all of it. Both end together on the bound, after which the router writes no more scroll and anchoring is back on, so a component reaching its final height later has its growth added and the reader drifts below the offset rather than sitting at the clamp.

    +

    A back/forward restore reserves the page's recorded HEIGHT across the swap, then suppresses the browser's scroll anchoring (overflow-anchor) for the restore's duration, then puts both back. The reservation is what makes the saved offset reachable: the snapshot's markup is briefly shorter than the page it was serialized from, because its components have not rendered yet, so without it the browser clamps the restore to whatever the short document allowed and the reader lands short. The suppression covers the other half: content still SHIFTS above the viewport as those components render, and anchoring would add that shift to the offset just replayed, landing the reader below where they left. The window closes on the first real input (wheel, touchmove, keydown, pointerdown), so a reader who starts scrolling mid-restore gets normal anchoring back immediately. It also closes as soon as another page navigation starts, since the window outlives its own restore and must not be inherited by a page it was never meant for. Absent either of those it closes once the restore is over, which is the later of that restore's background revalidation settling and a short floor, and at the latest on a 2s ceiling. The floor matters because waiting on the revalidation alone would tie the window to network latency rather than to the growth it guards. Suppression only withholds a browser correction, it never moves the viewport. The height reservation releases on the same settle and ceiling, and on a superseding navigation, but deliberately NOT on user input: releasing the page's height under a reader mid-scroll is the one harm an early release could do. If your app sets overflow-anchor or an inline min-height on the root itself, each is saved and put back.

    A frame-targeted navigation or submission is the one exception to the closing rule above: it swaps a single <webjs-frame> rather than the page, so the restored offset is still the right one and the restore is left running. Frame targeting here means what it means everywhere else, so a trigger that breaks out with data-webjs-frame="_top", or names an id that does not resolve, is a page navigation and does close the window.

    Nav scroll restoration (both the back/forward restore and the scroll-to-top on a forward nav) is forced behavior: 'instant', so setting html { scroll-behavior: smooth } in your app does not make navigation visibly animate the scroll. It jumps like a native page load. A hash-anchor (#section) link still scrolls smoothly when you opt into it. Because route transitions ignore scroll-behavior: smooth (it only affects in-page anchors), the router logs a one-time dev-only console hint if it detects that setting on <html>, and notes that combining it with a sticky backdrop-filter header can flash on iOS during navigation.

    +

    The browser restores Back/Forward scroll, not the router. WebJs FORCES history.scrollRestoration to auto when the router starts, overriding an app that had set 'manual' (and putting that value back if you call disableClientRouter()), so setting it to 'manual' yourself does not take effect while the router is running. Only under auto does the browser record a scroll position per history entry, replay it on a traverse, and compose the iOS edge back-swipe gesture preview from that recording. The router writes no scroll of its own on a restore: it reserves the recorded height across the swap so the browser's replay lands on a document that can hold the offset, and that is the entire mechanism. One writer, which is the model Next and Remix 3 use as well. Taking manual control suppresses the recording, so every scrolled page previews blank for the whole duration of the gesture; that is a real bug WebJs shipped, inherited from Turbo Drive's assumeControlOfScrollRestoration, and it is why Turbo still has it (Turbo is single-writer too, but its writer is the app rather than the browser).

    +

    Navigation never animates the scroll, so setting html { scroll-behavior: smooth } in your app does not make it do so. The forward-nav scroll-to-top is the router's own write and is forced behavior: 'instant'; the back/forward restore is the browser's and is not a scrolling-API call at all, so scroll-behavior cannot reach it either. It jumps like a native page load. A hash-anchor (#section) link still scrolls smoothly when you opt into it. Because route transitions ignore scroll-behavior: smooth (it only affects in-page anchors), the router logs a one-time dev-only console hint if it detects that setting on <html>, and notes that combining it with a sticky backdrop-filter header can flash on iOS during navigation.
