Explanation:
No Google hits for that precise wording, but some for ブラウザに呼び出す, tending to be URLを… or HTMLを…. It would help to know more about the context, but if for example this were referring to an editor for HTML or similar web content, I could well imagine someone wanting to check what it actually looks like in a browser; so selecting a portion of text etc. (ブロック), then selecting "load in browser" (or similar terms, see links) from the context menu would make sense.

agree  sigmalanguage: Without more context, it is hard to tell, but this is definitely one possibility.

agree  Minoru Kuwahara: i would say "Load to/in the browser " or some other ways in the same line./ ↑ that is, of course, true. the point is the translation of 呼び出す there. -

Explanation:
Here is an analysis of ブラウザへ呼び出す...

case 1) the へ should have been typed を.

ブラウザを呼び出す = bring up (a) browser (window). --> Launch Browser.

The direct translation is Call Browser, which is one of the answers listed here. There might be a possibility that it is used in a conversation or a blog posting to mean launch browser, but it's not common and most of the time it should mean a browser window called Call browser, listing "calls". It could be a list of function/procedure calls, or phone call records.

case 2) ブラウザへ呼び出す -> bring (the selected item, in this case a block) to the browser

Depending on what the block refers to, the interpretation varies:

a) a code block --> execute/run it in the browser. You will see the result in the browser.

b) a text block (header block, etc) or a block of text --> place/render/display it in the browser

c) a block in a block diagram, or a graphic --> show details in the browser, place it in the browser (with properties such as size and location defined).

There maybe other possibilities, and I'm sure you can figure out, based on the context, which is the best interpretation.

And, last but most importantly, and I'm sure you know that, you need to stick with the UI translation provided since this is a menu item. When I first read your question "what is the usage of へ", I thought that this item might not be translated properly, hence your quest to the true meaning! Good luck!
