If $f$ is an $L^p$ function and $\int f(x)g(x)dx=0$ for every $L^p$ function $g$ does that imply that $f=0$ a.e

0yes but if I am not mistaken what you are saying implies f=0 a.e – 2012-12-08

Yes, it implies that $f=0$ a.e. For if we let $g=f$, then we have $\int f^2=0,$ and $f^2\geq0$. This implies that $f^2=0$ a.e., hence $f=0$ a.e.
