  Abstract:
We prove that C(X) is an ideal in C(X) if and only if every open locally compact subset of X is bounded. In particular, if X is a locally compact Hausdorff space, C (X) is an ideal of C(X) if and only if X is a pseudocompact space. It is shown that the existence of some special functions in C (X) causes C(X) not to be an ideal of C(X). Finally we will characterize the spaces X for which C(X) and CK(X), or Cψ (X), coincide.
