Hypochlorous acid oxidizing strength

The acid strengths and oxidizing abilities of the halogen oxoacids increase with the oxidation number of the halogen. The hypohalous acids, HXO (halogen oxidation number +1), are prepared by direct reaction of the halogen with water. For example, chlorine gas disproportionates in water to produce hypochlorous acid and hydrochloric acid ... 

How does the strength of the acids change in the series including hypochlorous, hypobromous, and hypoiodous acids What ions do solutions of these acids contain How do the stability and oxidizing effect of the acids change in this series Explain the observed laws.
