There should be a metal clamp with a bit of rubber in it running along the bottom of the window in side the door, there is a couple of bolts to hold it together. I guess yours might of rusted away ? take to door panel off and have a look inside the door and see whats holding the glass.

As you guested they are the clips for the seal on the door.
