There are three forms of DVI; DVI-A, DVI-D and DVI-I. The "A" stands for Analog, the "D" represents Digital and "I" is a combination of the two. The adapter sends an uncompressed video/audio signal to a receiver such as a monitor, but the signal itself can be either digital, analogue or both.

Can you use a HDMI to dvi adapter and dvi to vga adapter to connect your ps3 from HDMI to your projector by vga?

No. HDMI to DVI uses a DVI-D or DVI-I connection and is digital, but a DVI to VGA uses a DVI-I or DVI-A and is analog. The best way to connect a PS3 to a projector is to see if the projector support component video through the VGA input using a VGA to component pigtail adapter. The projector might have even come with one. You then need to purchase a PS3 component video cable. This will allow resolutions up to 1080i (if your projector support it).
