Are the orthogonal polynomials for the standard $L^2$ product on $[0,1]$ well-known? I couldn't find anything upon a quick web search.

Orthogonal polynomials on $[0,1]$

The Legendre polynomials $P_n(x)$ (see this Wikipedia article) are orthogonal on $[-1,1]$. So you can just set $Q_n(x)=P_n(2x-1)$ to get an orthogonal famiy on $[0,1]$.
