How to use Fluent wait for Listbox WebElement

Question

I am new to selenium webdriver. Can anybody help me to use the fluentwait in my script?
Here is my HTML code:

<ul id="ui-id-6" class="ui-autocomplete ui-front ui-menu ui-widget ui-widget-content" tabindex="0" style="display: block; width: 827px; top: 405px; left: 374px;">

Try this:

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20);
WebElement element = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.cssSelector("ul#ui-id-6"))));

By Using Fluent waits, it waits till the element is found. If the element is not found, it retries every 5 seconds, but will wait only up to a maximum of 30 seconds.

Wait wait = new FluentWait(driver)
   .withTimeout(30, SECONDS)
   .pollingEvery(5, SECONDS)
   .ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class);

Use WebDriver wait in try/catch block,

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, timeout);
    WebElement ele = null;
    try {
          ele = wait.until(ExpectedConditions
                  .presenceOfElementLocated(locator));
    } catch (Exception e) {
          throw e;
    }

also need to pass timeout in long. For more information on dealing with internally as well external wait follow this answer. :)
