Outside door handle has alot of play

Outside door handle has alot of play, you can wobble it about 1/2 inch back and forth. Door handle still works, it just loose, how do you tighten the slack. I took the handle off, and looked at it, but it doesn't look like there's anything to tighten. Any ideas?

I have this problem on my car and it was just because the nuts that fasten the outside handle to the door were loose. There's two of them, behind the triangular plastic panel inside the car.
