you can decode above tx at http://chainquery.com/bitcoin-api/decoderawtransaction

From bitcoin explorer, I found that above transaction is 2-3 multisig tx. I understood that bolded part fd5d01 is script-length. its value is 309 Bytes. In a normal tx, Within the ScriptSig, the first byte which tells us how long the signature is. followed by the size of the second element and then the second element which is pubkey. Now, how to identify the number of signatures involved in a multisig tx like above example. I mean how did the explorer find out that it is 2-3 multisig. In the first place how to identify a multisig? And what is the significance os OP_0 at the beginnning of scriptsig?
