The paper is concerned with the existence of three solutions to the second-order boundary value problem \[ y''+ f(y)=0,\quad 0\leq t\leq 1,\quad y(0)= y(1)= 0,\tag{1} \] where \(f:\mathbb{R}\to [0,\infty)\) is continuous. Under growth conditions imposed on \(f\) the existence of at least three symmetric positive solutions on \((0,1)\) to (1) is proved via the Legett-Williams fixed point theorem. The results are an extension of the earlier ones by Avery, Leggett and Williams, and Guo and Lakshmikantham.
