The following worked for me:
konqy=$(dcopstart konqueror)
konqy_win=$(dcop $konqy KonquerorIface getWindows| head -1)
konqy_fullscreen=$(dcop $konqy_win action fullscreen)
dcop $konqy_fullscreen activate

$konqy_fullscreen is a reference to the "toggle fullscreenmode action". So 
whenever you activate it, it toggles between fullscreen and normal mode or 
vice versa. You may want to check if you are in fullscreen mode already with 
	dcop $konqy_win fullScreen

Cheers,
Waldo
