Is it possible to open a new message window with an attachment using javascript?
No, at least not in a standard web browser environment.
JavaScript has no access to local files. If you aren’t talking about local files, then email clients don’t provide a web browser accessible interface for adding attachments.
(If you were talking about JScript in a WSH environment, for example, then things would probably be different, but for the sake of this answer I’m going to assume the most common use case.)
