Understanding Exception handler activity

Question

All,
I created 2 view activities in my adfc-config.xml and established a navigation flow between them. The flow happens on click of a button on view1. I have defined an exception handler activity to show unhanded error that may arise. On click of the button in the view1, AM IMPL methods gets called and this is the code
    public void newPage(){
        int k = 5/0; //expecting the error handler activity to get invoked here   
    } When i click on the button, i get the exception however the page associated with exception handler is not getting invoked. I want the exception handler page to be shown for error and not the default popups. How do we do that?
thnks
