My citation for bibliography appear unsorted in the text like [6,3,4] instead of [3,4,6]. How can I make the appear sorted. I don't care how they appear at the end where they are all listed but my worry is for the appearance in the text. I have tried unsrt style but it does not make any difference. I am using \bibliographystyle{ieeetr}. Tash

Since you're using a numeric citation style and haven't indicated that you're using a citation management package such as natbib, you could get the citation numbers sorted by loading the cite package:
\usepackage{cite}

Thank Mico, this worked perfectly. I also used notoccite package to fix the order. Great.– TashMar 10, 2014 at 16:36
If you use biblatex, you can choose a numeric style, for instance, and obtain what you want with this line in your preamble:
\usepackage[style=numeric,sortcites=true]{biblatex}
The sortcites=true option makes the citations be sorted as in the bibliography.
