Nested try-catch blocks

Question

Hello All,
If I have 2 nested try-catch blocks see below
try{
    //Some code
    try{
        //Code that throws an IOException
    }catch(NumberFormatException nfe){
        //Handle the NFE
}catch(Exception e){
    //Handle the Exception
}Now what happens if in the inner try-catch an IOException is thrown? Will it be ignored, or will it get thrown out to the outer one and be caught by that catch?
Thanks,
Matt

Thanks, should have just done this from the start, but here is the result...
The following code
public class Main {
     public void execute(){
          try{
              try{
                   for(int i=0;i<100;i++){
                        System.out.println(i);
                        if(i==5){
                             throw new java.io.IOException();
              }catch(NumberFormatException nfe){
                 System.out.println("caught in inner block");
          }catch(Exception e){
              //Handle the Exception
             System.out.println("caught in outer block");
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          Main m = new Main();
          m.execute();
