Fuel leak...?

SO i come home from my lunch this afternoon, and i spot a puddle coming from the back end of the honda... I check it out. thought it could just be moisture thawing.. but it smelled like fuel. I can't really see where it is coming from... I'm not sure how to go about seein what it could be and where....
I changed out the brake pads yesterday on the front, nothing happened to the rear. I filled up the tank when i got back home, and i think the tank this time said 3/4+...... i don't think i've driven it since i filled it...
So.. obviosly i sounds like i could have a leak, but can anyone shed some light as to how i go about pin-pointing it and all....

dunno why though. it shouldnt do that :?
This happened to my Civic Pro after i got it. Checked the gas cap and it was one of those temporary ones that doesn't seal.
The time my Saturn started gushing coolant just after an autocross run, I was terrified that I'd just trashed my car. Turned out it was just the coolant bottle cap had worn out and lost pressure. A new one fixed it permanently. Screwing the old cap back on over a plastic bag sealed it enough for me to finish my runs for the day.
Good luck finding a replacement, too. I can't find one around me. At this point, I'm thinking I might try to fab one myself. I need a new filler neck, and that weirdo curved bracket. I've never seen anything so corroded in my life that wasn't part of a shipwreck.
