How can I create this pop-up dialog in chrome?

This is the dialog that appears when you right-click a bookmark and choose 'edit'. I'd like to create something in similar style (has multiple fields for user input) for a chrome extension I'm creating, but I can't even figure out what it's called, let alone how to code it.

That would be the Chrome Bookmark Edit Dialog. To perform similar actions to that dialog in your extension, you'll need to use the chrome.bookmarks api. Here's the full documentation on that api: http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/bookmarks.html .

Start by requesting bookmarks permissions in your manifest.json and go from there:

"name": "My extension",
  ...
  "permissions": [
    "bookmarks"
  ],
  ...
}
