and now I just noticed when I shut the door, the glass doesn't go back up into the weather strip. i opened the door, drew up the window and shut the door not thinking about the glass hiting the W/S and thought I broke the glass!!!!....any corralation between the two?

Yes, Look in the manual that came with the car on how to set.

There's a recalibration procedure in the OM.

I disconnected the battery when installing my HID headlights and the windows remained calibrated.

I'm not sure what the rhyme or reason is for when it happens and doesn't after a battery disconnect. I've disconnected the battery multiple times and never had to do the recal. My GUESS is that as long as the doors have not been opened or closed (or simply left untouched in whatever state they were in from the disconnect to the reconnect), they should retain their calibration. No big deal though, since the manual describes it as an EXPECTED OCCURENCE.
