It is difficult to see how that line could not set params[:task][:enddate] to nil, assuming it did not generate an error such as it would if params[:task] were nil. Are you sure it is executing that line of code? You could break in at that point using ruby-debug and check. See the rails guide on debugging for how to do it (google rails guides).
