<apex:outputlink value="{!accountobj.Name}"/>
</apex:pageblockTable>
</apex:pageblock>
</apex:form>
</apex:page>
Can anyone help me to solve the issue ?

Answer 1

accountlist is a List<List<Account>>, which is the wrong type; a SOSL search returns a List<List<sObject>>. It just so happens that your SOSL search only returns Account results.
When you iterate over a List<List<sObject>>:
<apex:pageblockTable value="{!accountlist}" var="accountobj">
the type of the iteration variable is List<Account>, which has no Name property.
The cleanest solution is to declare your variable as a List<Account> and extract the first element of the returned List<List<sObject>> from SOSL.
