jQuery-UI .sortable plugin does not work on Microsoft Edge browser

jQuery-UI .sortable plugin does not work on Microsoft Edge browser

The jQuery-UI .sortable plugin works in IE (as well as Chrome & Firefox), but doesn't work in the Edge browser. 

Is there a fix?

Here is example code that works on "everything" except Edge:


<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
   <title>jQuery UI Sortable - Example</title>
   <style>
      #sortable-1 { list-style-type: none; margin: 0; 
         padding: 0; width: 25%; }
      #sortable-1 li { margin: 0 3px 3px 3px; padding: 0.4em; 
         padding-left: 1.5em; font-size: 17px; height: 16px; }
      .default {
         background: #cedc98;
         border: 1px solid #DDDDDD;
         color: #333333;
      }
   </style>
   <script>
      $(function() {
         $( "#sortable-1" ).sortable();
      });
   </script>
</head>
<body>
   <ul id="sortable-1">
      <li class="default">Product 1</li>
      <li class="default">Product 2</li>
      <li class="default">Product 3</li>
      <li class="default">Product 4</li>
      <li class="default">Product 5</li>
      <li class="default">Product 6</li>
      <li class="default">Product 7</li>
   </ul>
</body>
</html>
