Let Un be an n-dimensional subspace of C[0, 1]. We prove that if n ≥ 2, and Un contains a function which is strictly positive on (0, 1), then there exists an f ∈ C[0, 1] which has more than one best one-sided L '-approximation from Un. We also characterize those Un with the property that each f ∈ C[0, 1] has a unique best one-sided L1(w)-approximation from Un with respect to every strictly positive continuous weight function w.
