Default car overheats.

its a 90 accord ex.
ok here it goes. my car overheats. the fans work etc. but i lose some colant. not a lot but i still lose some. i don't know from where. there are no leaks in the car. but here is what i noticed. while my car was on i noticed that on the white container next to the raidoator<<<<< the water was kind of boiling??? or there were lots of bubles.
then i turned off the engine and put my ear next to the radiator cap. i think that i hear the water boiling in there.
so why is my car overheating and the coolant boiling????

its like if i let my car seat its gona overheat. if i dirve it then its gona cool down?

so what do u guys think.

Could be a bunch of things.

1. DO you have enough coolant in there.
2. Is the coolant properly mixed.
3. THe radiator might be shot.
