There's no good way to put them in the "correct order". Due to the way the notebook works, all of the plots are shown after all of the text output. I don't believe the notebook takes into account the file creation times when choosing what order to display the images -- it's just alphabetical.

Your best bet is to put the first two commands in one cell, and the second two in a different cells.

plot(sin(x)).save(DATA+"/p1.png")
plot(cos(x)).save(DATA+"/p2.png")

print "sin(x)"
print html('<img src="data/p1.png"/>')

A slightly more complicated solution is to save the plots to the data directory in a cell like:

plot(sin(x)).save(DATA+"/p1.png")
plot(cos(x)).save(DATA+"/p2.png")

We'll use a little helper function to fix issues with reloading. (The timestamp after the image filename keeps the browser from caching it).:

def data_image(filename):
    import time
    return html('<img src="data/%s?%s"/>'%(filename, time.time()))

Then, you can reference those in another cell like:

print "sin(x)"
print html('<img src="data/p1.png"/>')
data_image('p1.png')
print "cos(x)"
print html('<img src="data/p2.png"/>')
data_image('p2.png')
