jQuery UI sortable widget delay option is used to set the time in milliseconds to define when the sorting should start. 

Syntax:

$( ".selector" ).sortable({
  delay: 150
});

Approach: First, add jQuery UI scripts needed for your project.

<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”//code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css”>

<script src=”https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.js”></script>

<script src=”https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/jquery-ui.js”></script>

Example:

HTML




<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" 
          content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
     
    <link rel="stylesheet" href=
        "//code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css">  
    <script 
    </script>
    <script 
    </script>
    <style>
        #sortable {
            list-style-type: none;
            width: 50%;
        }
  
        #sortable li {
            margin: 10px 0;
            padding: 0.5em;
            font-size: 25px;
            height: 20px;
        }
    </style>
  
    <script>
        $(function () {
            $("#sortable").sortable({
                delay: 1000
            });
        });
    </script>
</head>
  
<body>
    <center>
        <h1 style="color: green;">GeeksforGeeks</h1>
