Sounds like your hinge has worn or snapped the pin. New hinges and apply a dab of oil every service.
Worst case there's plenty of corrosion and its broken through.

Top door hinge, mine's gone too.

Take the front driver's side wheel off, and look at the door hinge nuts. It could be a simple case of loosened nuts, oooor a full blown case of the panel that the door bolts to being rotten away.

Take the wheel off, and have a look

Either or both of the hinges can be worn. its not just the top thats definately gone
Opening the door and inspecting the hinges and the area around where they are mounted will be suffice.
