How do i repair faulty vauxhall astra window?

My Vauxhall Astra sxi window is faulty, its electric. when i try to close it, it goes up about half way the the front of the window starts to dip, then the window goes back down.

I think the window is off its bracket but have taken the door panel off and am struggling, any help?

there are 2 brackets in which the window sits in .remove the rubber and place over the glass and tap the metal clasp over gently making sure they are in the same place as when removed.clip the clasps back into the runners and spray runners with silicone spray or wd40 and check windows should be ok. if not lower all the way and raise up when completly up hold switch for approx 2 secs failing that dissconnect the battery should do the trick
