equivalence relations using functions

Help me out with the question. I managed to do it myself somewhat, but would like a second opinion.

Let S be the set consisting of functions f : [0; 1] ! R such that
(i) f is continuous, and
(ii) f(x) > 0 for all x 2 [0; 1].
Show that the relation R on S defined by
fRg if and only if
∫1 and 0
f(x):dx ·
∫1 and 0
g(x):dx
is not a partial ordering on S.
Which out of reflexivity, antisymmetry, transitivity fails, and why?
