Have there ever actually been any studies proving some immunizations cause autism?

What are the objective arguments against immunizations for infants and children?
I have heard a lot about autism being caused by some immunizations, but haven't found any studies actually proving this. Have there been any? Or have there even been any strong correlations?
Saying something like "nearly all children with autism have had immunizations" means nothing since over 98% of children have been given immunizations. That's pretty much like saying "nearly all autistic children fit within 98% of the scope of all children".
