Is there any way you can add text to the beginning of a tag value like this.

<div id="idName">goes</div>
<script>
  document.getElementById("idName").innerHTML += " here.";
</script>

But instead of adding it to the end add it to the beginning. I already tried this.

<div id="idName">goes</div>
<script>
  document.getElementById("idName").innerHTML -= "Text ";
</script>

There must be a lot of ways to perform that, the easiest according to your example could be like this:

<div id="idName">goes</div>
<script>
  document.getElementById("idName").innerHTML = "Text " + document.getElementById("idName").innerHTML + " here.";
</script>

  var idName = document.getElementById("idName").textContent;
document.getElementById("idName").textContent = " here." + idName;
<div id="idName">goes</div>

You can save idName innerHTML before add or change it .

<div id="idName">goes</div>
<script>
var xidName = document.getElementById("idName").innerHTML;
document.getElementById("idName").innerHTML =  "here " + xidName;
</script>
