Remarks About Some Weierstrass Type Results

The Weierstrass type results of Gajek and Zagrodny [7] are not in general retainable in the precise context. Our first aim in this exposition is to show that a completion of the imposed conditions may be offered so that these results be true. As a second aim, alternate proofs of the statements in question are performed, via ordering principles comparable with the one in Brezis and Browder [3].
