The glass is held in by a pinch grip in the bottom rail that holds the 
glass to the channels.  Originally there seems to be a gunk of sorts that 
helped 'glue' it in place that you can usually just pry the glass up and 
out of since it gets old and dried out.  Replacement is done with either a 
strip of adhesive meant for this at auto supply stores or similar adhesive 
material such as butyl rope.
