Numbering the references in Bibliography

[mmjoglekar]

Hi,

I am facing the following problem while using the article class. Need some help on this.

I am having list of figures, in which, some captions have references. Suppose there are four such citations.

So when I start my actual text (Chapter 1: Introduction), the first reference number is displayed as [5]. This is happening because the first four have been used in the list of figures.

This looks odd.

Is there any remedy to overcome this problem.

Thank you in advance.
