Depending on the regex engine, this won't work if there are multiple gallery tags. The regex will match everything between the first opening gallery tag and the last closing gallery tag. To be safe, throw a
? after the greedy * to make it look like /\[gallery\](.*?)\[\/gallery\]/g.

@HowToPlease I suppose you would want to do it the lazy way, (*.)+ to handle multiple tags within the same string
It looks like there may be some attributes after inside your tag.
Try this:
/\[gallery[^\]]*\](.*)\[\/gallery\]/gi
