Reference Sorting

Post by gkl »

Dear All,

I am using the plain bibliography style and I would like when I have multiple references (e.g. \cite{ref1,ref2}) if ref1 ends up beeing reference 65 on the list of references and ref2 number 24, to show [25,64] in the resulting pdf rather than [64,25] as it would show because of the order of the labels.

Is it possible to achieve this with the plain (or any other) bibliography style?

Regards,
George
