AdView layout takes up whole screen

I have the following XML layout:

            <RelativeLayout
                android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                android:layout_height="fill_parent">

                <ScrollView
                    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
                    android:fillViewport="true"
                    android:layout_above="@+id/adcontent1"
                    android:background="#0000FF">

                    <TextView
                    android:id="@+id/tempview"
                    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

                </ScrollView>

                <RelativeLayout
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:background="#FF0000"
                    android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
                    android:id="@+id/adcontent1" >

                    <com.google.ads.AdView
                        xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.google.ads"
                        android:id="@+id/adview1"
                        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                        app:adSize="BANNER"
                        app:adUnitId="lah-di-da"
                        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
                        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true">

                    </com.google.ads.AdView>

                 </RelativeLayout>

            </RelativeLayout>

The problem is, that for some reason, the wrap_content for the AdView RelativeLayout height attribute causes the whole RelativeLayout to take up the whole screen. If I set a hard value (50px) then I get the ScrollView taking up the whole screen - 50px (Like I want, except that the RelativeLayout height should be equal to the AdView height. Does anyone know why the AdView forces the parent RelativeLayout to fill the screen?

Note: There are layouts behind these, but they have no influence on this specific issue (As tested by setting height = 50px).

Since android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" wont work with wrap_content( it works with fill_parent as it knows the area in which it needs to be centered). Remove the CenterHorizontal code And use wrap_content instead of providing a height value which will not allow to provide Ads dynamically.

Try to set the height of the ad to '50dp' and post your results
