Custom Validation message in Rails 3.0

Question

When I use the following validation:

 validates_length_of :lgtitle, :maximum=>45, :message=>"Please reduce the number of characters used in the Before Like Title. The maximum is 45 characters."

Rails returns the message and the table row in my view:

Lgtitle Please reduce the number of characters used in the Before Like Title. The maximum is 45 characters.

What is the best practice for eliminating the table table row string that is added to the validation message?

Thank you.

Error messages are added in model.errors which is a Hash.

Keys are column names
Values, the message itself

I bet you display both key and value.
