Default Budget lenses for 350D

I thin kit might be time to expand my camera's legs a little. I've wanted a couple of different lenses to the kit lens for some time and I think I'm going to start looking. I'm not after anything expensive because my camera gets beaten about something silly and I don't want to wreck a £400 lens.

So I'm looking for a 200mm zoom lens, maybe something like this. What I can't work out is if I used that on a 350D does that give me 55-250 or 88-400?

I'm also looking for something wide like a 10-22 but all I can find is mega expensive glass. Would a fixed lens (ie non zoom) be cheaper? I don't think with a lens that wide I'd want zoom on it anyway, I'll just move in or out to suit.

Finally I know the kit lens is an EFS. Is this what I have to look for or will an EF fit? Can I use lenses from a film EOS? For the wide one I guess I'm not that bothered about autofocus either so would this expand my possibilities?

Sorry for the bombardment of questions and lack of Google skills here. I only know about what's currently on my camera
