Thanks Polyclefsoftware,

What did you mean about Admob? About them not requiring webview?

What I'm looking is an ad network that will allow me to call an advert by
using a <Javascript> or some php code in the webview that will bring it into
display. It needs to work this way.

Does anyone here know of anything?

As for Google Adsense: yes, it was pretty vicious what they did. Not that I
don't have an account anymore, but the "way" they did it. Without any
explanation, without any communication, nor reasoning whatsoever. Especially
as I never clicked the ads myself and was responsible. They never explained
anywhere that the ads should not go on an Android phone. I think that is
really irresponsible of them.

Thanks again,
Vaz
