[Mtamazon] Getting something back (The shocking sequel to "Getting nothing back"!)

Well, after implementing a couple of hacks for bugs found in MT 3.11
(see http://www.movabletype.org/support/?act=ST&f=7&t=45210), I'm now
getting an error back from Movable Type, thusly:

*************************************************
* Building entry 'Fight Club' failed: Build *
* error in template 'Individual Entry Archive': *
* Error in <MTAmazon> tag: You used <MTAmazon> *
* without a search string. *
*************************************************

Until I get MTAmazon working, I'm using the default MT 3.x templates.
Here's the code from my Individual Archive Template:

<h3><$MTEntryTitle$></h3>

<MTAmazon method="Asin" search="<$MTEntryKeywords$>" lastn="1">
<p><a href="<MTAmazonLink>">
<img src="<MTAmazonSmallImage>" align="left" border="0"><MTAmazonTitle>
</a><br>
<MTAmazonReleaseDate format="%B %e, %Y"><br>
Price: <MTAmazonSalePrice></p><br clear=all>
</MTAmazon>

<$MTEntryBody$>

Essentially, the entry uses the "MTEntryKeywords" field for use as the
ISBN/ASIN. Can anyone help me with this problem?
