One might add to Eli's questions (even if that is simply what he
means, only in more words): What exactly do you mean by "no effect"?
One would assume that you mean that C-h v org-export-html-style tells
you that the variable still has the old value. But one should never
assume; maybe you do something more high-level and that is how you
notice that the old value is still used.

Assuming ;-) that you ARE sure that the value of the variable does not
change: Have you tried M-x edebug-defun inside the definition of
load-my-css, and then calling it? It might go some of the way towards
anwering Eli's second question.

Best regards,

Florian
