No.
"attr(lang)" represents the *string* which is the value of attribute
"lang" of element "languages".
This is clearly *not* related to what you want to do. You want to
generate a combo-box which allows to edit the attribute "lang" of
element "languages".
Therefore, the CSS rule should be:
---
languages {
display: block;
content: element-name() "=" combo-box(attribute, lang);
color: #0000FF;
margin: 1.33ex 0;
}
