sed/awk date range?

Hi,

I am trying to grep out a date range in an access log file. I defined the date like so;

Code:
DATE1=$(date --date '1 hour ago' '+%m/%d/%y:%H:%M:%S')
DATE2=$(date '+%m/%d/%y:%H:%M:%S')

Then I just used cat to get the hits to the url into a results.txt;

Code:
touch /tmp/results.txt
cat /var/log/httpd/access_log | grep index.php >> /tmp/results.txt

How would I use sed/awk to get the exact entries for the date ranges that were defined?

Thanks for any help.

Cheers!
