List of forms on a webpage

I want to display a list of contact addresses. Each contact has information such as name, street, city, country, phone, email, website, ... There are several hundred addresses I have to display.

A contact has to be editable on demand. That is if the user clicks an "edit" button on the side. Now here is my issue: Is it appropriate to have several hundred forms on page which I activate with the click on the button? Or is it better to display the data in a <div>, <p> layout and have something like a modal with the form popup?

Does it cause problems to have so many forms?

There is no problem. MDN approves of multiple forms in one page.

Having so many forms will cause the webpage to become bulky and slow, and it will be a hassle to maintain. In order to avoid having hundreds of forms on one page, you can have a single form which is dynamically edited according to which contact address the user selects.
