[ic] custom shipping problem

I am having problems trying to get a custom shipping setup to work. I 
have a catalog where items in one category have a fixed shipping 
price and everything else is charged for shipping based on the total 
price of the remaining items. I have written usertags to calculate 
the number of items that should be charged per item and have been 
able to get that charged correctly added for shipping as long as the 
person also orders an item which is charged by price.

If the person only orders an item charged by price I get the following error.

No match found for mode 'formula', quantity '', returning 0.

Even though I know that the usertag tag is return the correct amount 
of 0.00. Any idea why the quantity would be NULL?


Here is what I have in my shipping.asc.
formula TestFormula     [myshipping noformat=1]    0       0     0.00 
{'adder' => "(\$Scratch->{thehandling} * 50)"}
formula TestFormula     [myshipping noformat=1] 0       100     3.33 
{'adder' => "(\$Scratch->{thehandling} * 50)"}
formula TestFormula     [myshipping noformat=1] 100     9999999 9.99 
{'adder' => "(\$Scratch->{thehandling} * 50)"}
