Raising an exception always terminates execution at that point. However, if the code in question is wrapped in a try/except, the "except" block may take over (if the particular exception raised is caught). In the case of a web2py request, all application code is executed inside a try/except in gluon.main.wsgibase (actually, several nested try/except blocks). In particular, raising an HTTP exception gets caught and results in an HTTP response being sent back immediately.
