    At first you need to omit the last parameter in the URL, just remove &callback=cbfunc.

    The PHP code to fetch the content is:

    $rawData = file_get_contents("... your url ...");
$parsedData = json_decode($rawData);

    $parsedData will now contain the content in a nested object structure.

    Further info

    You need fopen wrappers enabled for this to work. If they are not enabled, just use cURL to load the content from the page and put it into json_decode.
