Redirect only prints Location to screen...

Question

I am trying to redirect to a form based on the value of a field using pl/sql in the "before the page..." block.
So far my test is proving to work except for the redirect. I can test the code (below) and the if statement fires correctly but it doesnt redirect, instead, I only get the "Location: <URL>" printed to my screen. I can paste the location it prints in the url manually and it is correct....
declare
record_new number;
record_old number;
standing varchar2(1);
distributor varchar2(100);
begin
-- get the username to execute the report.
distributor := portal.wwctx_api.get_user;
-- is the newest record an 'A'?
select cstatus, nrecno
into standing, record_old
from (select *
from PROD.ADVOPAGE_SUBSCRIBER_DETAIL
where ccustno = distributor
order by nrecno desc)
where rownum = 1;
-- if yes get nextval from the seq and create a copy record
-- and pre-load it for the form.
if standing = 'A' then
record_new := '';
select prod.advopage_detail_seq.nextval into record_new from dual;
insert into PROD.ADVOPAGE_SUBSCRIBER_DETAIL
(nrecno,
ccustno,
cname,
cstory,
bimage,
dsubmitted,
csubmitted_by,
dapproved,
capproved_by,
cstatus,
curl,
ccomment)
select record_new,
ccustno,
cname,
cstory,
bimage,
dsubmitted,
csubmitted_by,
dapproved,
capproved_by,
'E',
curl,
ccomment
from PROD.ADVOPAGE_SUBSCRIBER_DETAIL
where nrecno = record_old;
owa_util.redirect_url('PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=2849511536&p_arg_names=NRECNO&p_arg_values=' ||
record_new ||
'&p_arg_names=_nrecno_cond&p_arg_values=%3D');
else
owa_util.redirect_url('PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=2849511536&p_arg_names=NRECNO&p_arg_values=' ||
record_old ||
'&p_arg_names=_nrecno_cond&p_arg_values=%3D');
end if;
exception
when others then
null;
end;
thx
