Summary: We study the existence of solutions to the fourth order Lidstone boundary value problem $$\displaylines{ y^{(4)}(t) = f(y(t),-y''(t)),\cr y(0)=y''(0)=y''(1)=y(1)=0\,. }$$ By imposing growth conditions on $f$ and using a generalization of the multiple fixed point theorem by Leggett and Williams, we show the existence of at least three symmetric positive solutions. We also prove analogous results for difference equations.
